-
Video/demo times
-
Approximate time to read the text lesson (the length of each text lesson is taken into consideration)
-
Simulations (5 minutes assigned per simulation. This is the amount of time it would take for a knowledgeable student to complete the lab activity. Plan that the new students will take much longer than this depending upon their knowledge level and computer experience.)
-
